4a OsyareBar overall site, entrance by Poponi Wiefel. We see on lower left corner, the free instant automatic translator which takes any language and converts it to home language. Green setting with water, small cozy houses on little lots connected with foot bridges in stone.

5 Snow globe with choice of duration for self confinement that users set by themselves, locked and unlocked. Location: Bound maid club
6a Wearing Greenie Jet Boots, Swann Jie gets a job at Doublehappiness jeans - an installation from sl to rl at SunDance festival. Very good sl/rl art project. Here Swann Jie is a worker, punch time clocks, work in exchange for a small plot where the first Digital Guqin Museum garden was set.
6b The now defunct Greenies sim. I compared the size of the guitar to my guqin. Its HUGE. I played the guqin and some avatars stopped to listen.

7 Lygia Clark : an example of open interpretation work, the viewer completes the art work by interpreting

14b Gion sim : closed Nov2008. Last visit of a beautiful replica of real life sim. Thanks to the creator Sammy Bindle, we have enjoyed the memories of this high quality sim. The creator also shot very professional Youtubes to accompany the promotion of this ambitious adventure.

15 Siberian Tiger friend and the first MobileMusic in the clouds at Penglai Island; Island installation by WangXiang Tuxing, Tiger by Arne Lopez, MobileMusic by Swann Jie

24b Aquarium with a very expensive silver fish. In real life favoured by big bosses, the aggressive carnivore fish feeds on live small fishes. Realistic office desk with bulletin board and seashell themed clock. High quality creation with attention to details - visitors are immersed in the virtual club immediately

28 IBM temporary exhibition, History of Rock. Short audio clips accompany the visit in each Zone. This reminds me of the "Immaterial" exhibition at Centre Pompidou in 1984, where people wore headphones to step into physical zones to hear the specific clips. Technology has advanced, avatars could DIY so easily, so accessible in sl.

33 Using sculpties method for reproduction of a scholar stone; custom work by Inuyasha Meiji after a real life photo, using 3D Max.

34a Using Prim construction for reproduction of real life famous scultpures; Leda and the Swan by Meleni Fairymeadow

34b Using Sculpt-Crafter software tool in Secondlife, thanks to super scripter Contagious Republic to link Prims together then reproduced as a single prim sculptie. Here the HuaHui sphere uses 50prims, each prim was sculpt-crafted from 43cubes. Instead of using 2000 prims, we only used 50.

34c Using Ploff to create sculpties from a simple drawing tool, a freeware, fun software for kids of all ages. Because this tool is not very precise, you often get surprise effects. The QiQ balbal cushions here are made with Ploff. Puffy cushions w a thin layer of soft gauze cushion on top

35 Wotthe Dickins uses his original software to reproduce the likeness of avatars into a doll. The avatar doll was made from scanning the "real life avatar" and color and shape are produced at once. Notice the fine hand crafted look of "wood whittling" doll via software and the self made Avatar using Linden Lab tools with realistic smooth skin

36a Exhara: blue grass dreamy ambiance as background for a mock up of installation of the real life HuaHui sphere. Realistically in real life, you could not let a sculpture stand freely in a grass land, however, in the virtual world, its possible and no safety issues; no typhoon, no vandalism, no surveillance.

36b Still from the film "RU there?" wheat field flowering, free and at the same time hidden. Realistic pieces of wheat stock are multiplied easily in any shape to give volume and mass to the field. Fields of flowers are also very popular.

36c Sand dune at Hipic sim, a vaste landscape with live media feed from 2D online web.
36d Hipic closeup. Image changes every few minute following the queue of uploaded pictures by anyone online.

52 Playing the Digital Guqin Instrument. The background is a Graffitti Wall, clicking on it sends you to an online whiteboard, anybody on the page could draw, write, paste photos, collaborate on the board in real time and the Graffitti Wall would display it. This is a type of online collaborative painting or "doodling" platform.
53a Tilly Ayres' Myst flower house re-purposed by Swannjiejie. The original flower was hot pink on bright green leave pod. Tilly's Myst flower house is one of the best classic design in sl and totally free. It was first conceived as a gift to a special friend, and then generously designed as a teaching tool for building. It came in freebie Dungeon and are sighted here and there in various sims. (At first glance from a distance, I had thought it was a Buddhist lotus for religious gatherings, until one day I came close to it and visited.) Colors shapes, all transformable. Here, it has been customised as a guest house for the Digital Guqin Museum. Behind the armchair is a painting scripted to cycle pictures and I have put together a sequential picture story book of the DGM thats displayed on the wall. The Guqin instrument (HunDun no1) has been put away inside the closet.

53b The Original Myst Flower by Tilly Ayres 2006

54a Franck Muller dress from Clock Island, very elegant formal wear for Qin concert player at Fashion Research Institute (Both locations no longer active) Clock Island was a perfect fantasy painting creation with time and numbers as a theme, original beautiful, conceptually magical. Its gone. Fashion Research Institute has relocated to Opensim

59 Plum blossom and Tree Peony (Mudan) : The two National Flowers of China

60 Visiting Digital Hollywood Graduate School in an official Digital Guqin Museum Taxi
Professor In Yan's creation. There are official diplomas for students who complete their sl course in Secondlife.

61 Max Frisch: short introduction of his views on "travelling", and "truth"
62 Love=Time; Some of the love expressions in sl, what are Valentine day gifts? Or Un-Valentine Day gifts for the ones you care about; friends and lovers all mixed?

Swann Jie the avatar with her doll ! (creator Wotthe Dickins)
A friend who does not use Sl says, its quite an honor to have a doll made after you.
Really, not exactly like that, I dont have a doll made after my likeness, but my avatar does! :)
However this vicarious honor rubs off onto my real person, I share the light from my avatar.

The Kite Runner 2*I liked the scenery, the content, and the balanced way of telling the story, the film crew was a large Chinese group... the sentiments shown is very Asian. An Asian film in essence.Max (an animation film with resine figurines, Swiss) 1*Fell asleep, graphics totally unattractive, story very old value, the sex roles of the characters are sooooooo ooooold and stale, I simply fell asleep.Peur(s) du noir (animation film) 3*Strong showLa Jeune Fille et les loups 2.5*good story well toldPromets moi 2.5*noisy music, in keeping w the directors usual style.Cortex 2*reminds me, how does it feel like to be in an old folks home? and be treated like a dependant? a fine film showing humiliation and helplessness of the aged... We must take care of our parents when they get old... you wouldnt want to be put into an old folks home.Enfin Veuve 1*empty silliness. bourgeoise distraction.La Fanfare 2.5*Asian Oriental feel, the star is snappy, sassy, very interesting.Lust Caution 3*hmmm. the script has some problems...La Graine et le mulet 4*charming, brave, authentic, kind, i feel closer to the North Afracan immigrants after seeing this movie. Human, warmth, and what belly dancing could means.

Inventions needed :

A computer display which has the capacity of the sun :sl is an extension of rl for me, growing longer fingers, and coming back, the air is sweeter. Only thing I dont like is having to look at a lcd screen - I know how people get such pale faces and panda eyes now... maybe we should invent a computer that is like the sun, gives us warmth and a golden glow?
